Following the release of presidential candidate Donald Trump’s proposed immigration policies, a national debate has been sparked regarding the 14th Amendment to the Constitution and the idea of birthright citizenship.

Many have argued that the 14th Amendment infers automatic citizenship
upon any person born within the United States, even if the person’s
parents are in the country illegally.

This has led to the use of the term “anchor babies”
to describe such persons, as the citizenship they are granted upon
birth acts as an anchor to keep the family from being deported, despite
their lack of legal status.

But that simply isn’t what was intended by the 14th Amendment, as
proven by the words of the very man who authored the amendment in 1866,
Michigan Sen. Jacob M. Howard.

Howard explained in writing exactly what the scope of the law was
when he introduced it, making it quite clear that it was referring to
granting citizenship to the recently freed slaves only, not foreigners
or even Native Americans.

An attempted murder suspect who fired at NYPD officers was met with a
barrage of 84 bullets from police – but a staggering 83 of those shots
missed the man completely.

Jerrol Harris, 27, ran from
police early on Friday morning after allegedly robbing and shooting a
man in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York.

The
victim, 52-year-old Leon Faison, was shot in the arm after he discovered
Harris inside his car attempting to steal items at around 1:10am local
time, ABC 7 reported.

He chased after Harris, spotting a pair of
cops along the way. Faison provided them with a description of the
suspect, and officers soon spotted Harris running about eight blocks
from the scene of the crime.

Beyond their superior power and handling over the Mustangs on which
they were based, Shelby’s GT coupes and convertibles always had a
decided advantage in the looks department, especially the 1967 version.
Its aggressive front end treatment extended the hood and nose for an
extremely aggressive appearance that was furthered by body side scoops
and an upswept tail spoiler.

The 1967 Shelby GT500 on offer here embodies that entire attitude in
all its freshly restored glory. Its highly desirable Dark Moss Green
paint with White striping and Black Décor interior make for a
show-stopping combination.

Powered by the Shelby-modified 428 CI Police Interceptor V-8 engine,
which was fitted with dual 600 CFM Holley 4-barrel carburetors on an
aluminum intake manifold and given a factory rating of 355 HP, (Dyno about 400 BHP) it will
surely set you back in your seat.

The event went down pretty much exactly as I expected it would. In
the two years the League of the South has been holding rallies in the
South, we have never assaulted anyone, spit on anyone, or stolen
anything from anyone who came out to oppose us. Those things are to be
expected though from the “anti-racist” crowd who never fail to
illustrate that they are the spitting image of everything they imagine
us to be:

....... that some may find it hard to believe that it could incur any
opposition other than from committed white supremacists. Make no mistake
about it, we intend to keep bashing the dead white males, and the live
ones, and the females too, until the social construct known as the white
race is destroyed - not deconstructed but destroyed."

Col.
Bunny - What about importing 800,000 refugees or bogus asylum seekers
doesn't make massive social, political, and economic problems an
inevitability? Is the knowledge of hand grenade attacks in Malmo, Sweden
not available to Western leaders? Are the 751 "sensitive urban zones"
in France not known by them to be filled with Muslims and Africans
seething with resentment against the French people?.. Why not just fire a
gun randomly into a crowd of your countrymen every 30 minutes? The
deleterious consequences of immigration are no less likely to occur. The
absence of good will and stupidity, the adamant refusal to take
appropriate defensive actions, and the obvious intent inferrable from
deliberate actions make the willful, malign purpose of Western leaders
quite clear.

Stop
calling them refugees, immigrants, or asylum seekers. This is an
invasion force. It is 80%+ military age males. They aren't fleeing from
oppression, they bring oppression. They aren't fleeing from violence,
they bring violence. They are coming to the socialist welfare states
seeking welfare. They want free housing. Free cars. Free clothes. Free
money. Free food. They want everything your ancestors struggled
thousands of years to give you, white man. They want you in the ground.
They want you dead. And thanks to generations of pacifist brainwashing
and Leftist propaganda, they're virtually unopposed in Europe.

Military prosecutors have reached into a section of military law
seldom used since World War II in the politically fraught case against
Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the soldier held prisoner for years by the
Taliban after leaving his post in Afghanistan.

Observers wondered for months if Bergdahl would be
charged with desertion after the deal brokered by the U.S. to bring him
home. He was — but he was also charged with misbehavior before the
enemy, a much rarer offense that carries a stiffer potential penalty in
this case.

"I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bit of Confederate DNA floating around Victoria."

It's a story way closer to Richmond, Victoria than the
Confederate heartland of Richmond, Virginia – a little known chapter of
local history that led to an Australian gun crew firing the last shot of
the American Civil War.

These guys were celebrities. Melbourne really feted them. The ladies just loved them.Terry Smyth, author of Australian Confederates

It's 150 years since the CSS Shenandoah docked in
Melbourne to a rock star's welcome.

Captain James Waddell and his rebel
officers were wined and dined during a stay of more than three weeks
before being unceremoniously ousted for illegally recruiting Melburnians
to the Confederate cause. Throw in an illicit love story between
Waddell and a Union prisoner on board and it's a ripping yarn.

Both
of the belts have interlocking brass "CS" buckles. One has a frog and
the other has a hanger. The black leather belt holster is unmarked. The
double edged fighting knife/dirk has a 9 inch blade that swells near the
center, spines, an iron cross guard, brass fittings and a walnut
handle.

Good to fine overall. The leather has cracking and general wear. The knife has a dark patina with light pitting and some cracks in the wood.

Editor’s note: We’re looking back at a another historical blade. There
are a lot of modern versions of this knife, and a lot of fakes. Where
can you look if you want an original? Rock Island Auctions has a huge
auction coming up this week. It starts on the 11th of September, and
will run for several days. You can bid on-line, by phone, or by proxy.
Check out the Fairbairn-Sykes they have coming up in the auction: http://www.rockislandauction.com/search/aid/65. (2,997 items)

We don’t just like things that go bang around here at GunsAmerica, we
are also fans of the blade. This installment is a continuation of the
history of the fighting knife that we started with the Ka-Bar
knife of WWII fame. The idea here is to look at some of the classic
fighting knives for a bit of background on their development before we
look at some more modern designs.

This brings us to another famous knife of WWII, albeit from the other side of the pond: the British Fairbairn-Sykes.

There are several attributes of Donald Trump’s bid for the U.S. Presidency that this Paleo-Conservative finds to be interesting. To follow is an adumbration of the more salient.

1. His campaign style is refreshing. The absence of teleprompters, which results in spontaneity, which in turn reveals the unvarnished candidate in contradistinction to the coached, stale, and unconvincing political hacks, is refreshing. Trump’s campaign speeches and debate performance have actually juiced up political discourse, making politics interesting not simply for the political class but also for Middle American.

2. The engagement of Middle American into this presidential election cycle have the political class spooked. It is this same political class responsible for the removal of all things Confederate from the public square, not Middle American. It is Middle America that has catapulted Trump into the lead. In other words, Middle America may actually have some meaningful input into the election of the next POTUS.

Wade into the woods in Ridgeland looking for the site of the Battle
of Honey Hill, and your chances of identifying something meaningful are
slim.

A sign off of S.C. 336 tells a brief tale of the Confederate victory at
the site in November 1864. The rest is up to those brave enough — and
with enough local knowledge — to make their way around.

But the town of Ridgeland and preservationists are finalizing an effort
to make the site more welcoming, to tell people what they are seeing
and what took place and to preserve key elements of the battlefield.

Everyone involved in the great gun debate wants to reduce
firearm-related violence. Of course, the two sides differ on solutions
to the problem. To oversimplify for the sake of brevity, the National
Rifle Association wants to put guns in the hands of more law-abiding
citizens in the hope that an armed society creates a politer society,
whereas Everytown for Gun Safety wants to restrict access to guns in the
hope that it keeps them from falling into the wrong hands.

However, truth be told, neither solution really addresses the
elephant in the room which is that gun-related violence is an epidemic
in the African American community. To quote from a recent Pew Study:

Recently, after spending three months in Colorado I returned to North
Carolina to a large list of errands. The first of these errands was
replacing a lost passport, which meant I had to go to the Post Office in
downtown Wilmington. I rarely go downtown, largely because the area is
infested with drugs and crime. Unsurprisingly, before I left the
downtown area I passed a crime scene. Judging by the number of police
cars I could tell it was a murder.

In addition to the things I knew there were some things I merely
suspected when I happened upon that crime scene. For example, I
suspected that both the perpetrator and the victim were young black
males between the ages of 15 and 25. I’m not Sherlock Holmes. You don’t
need to be a detective to know that black on black violence is rampant
in downtown Wilmington.

It should go without saying that I was unsurprised when I watched the
evening news and learned that the victim was a young black male and
that a young black male suspect was already in custody. But the
following statement made by Police Chief Ralph Evangelous did surprise
me: “Where is the outcry in our community? God forbid it would be an
officer involved in this situation, we’d have a protest.”

If you’re planning on travelling to China, we have two pieces of advice:

Do not look like a short seller

Do not go near any chemical factories

Failing to heed the first tip there could get you thrown in jail (or,
as Man Group’s China chief Li Yifei calls it, sent on a "short
vacation").

The consequences of failing to follow the second piece of advice above could be, how should we put this... explosive.

With Beijing still scrambling to contain the fallout
(both figuratively and literally) from the devastating blast at Tianjin
which killed some 160 people and injured more than 700 last month, the
country is on edge. Two additional chemical blasts (both in Shandong) did little to calm China’s frayed nerves and now, a fourth blast, this time in Zhejiang, has been reported.

A previously deported criminal alien from Mexico with a felony
conviction has been allowed to stay in the United States because he is
transgender. Deportation would be inhumane, the Federal Appeal Courts
for the Ninth Circuit ruled.

In the opinion filed on September 3, Judge Jacqueline Nguyen (A Vietnamese liberal? I guess our commie schools brain washes them also.)
disregarded the fact that Edin Avendano-Hernandez, who had been
previously deported, had been convicted of DWI and had a felony
conviction for injuring people while driving drunk when ruling in
his/her favor.

The judge further criticized the lower courts for being insensitive to the previously deported criminal alien.

The daughter of a South Vietnamese army major who had worked closely
with U.S. intelligence officials, Nguyen moved with her family first to
an army tent at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, where she lived for several months.[2]

Very interesting considering Trump had mentioned something to the effect before.

A SurveyUSA poll released Friday shows that 25% of black respondents said they would vote for Trump over Clinton.

According to The American Mirror
Trump would more than double the best result for a Republican in modern
American history… Looking at the last 10 presidential election cycles,
the highest black vote share for a Republican was 12% for Bob Dole in
1996.

In an election for President of the United States, today, Labor Day,
business provocateur Donald Trump narrowly defeats Hillary Clinton, Joe
Biden, Bernie Sanders and Al Gore, in head-to-head matchups, according
to nationwide polling conducted by SurveyUSA.

Today it's:

* Trump 45%, Clinton 40%. (There is a 20-point Gender Gap; Trump leads by 18 points among seniors.) * Trump 44%, Sanders 40%. (Trump leads by 10 among independents and by 6 among moderates.) * Trump 44%, Biden 42%. (Trump leads by 10 among the best educated; Biden leads by 17 among the least educated.) * Trump 44%, Gore 41%. (Trump leads by 12 among men and by 18 among voters age 50+.)

Among a subset of registered voters who tell SurveyUSA that they pay "a
lot" of attention to politics, the scale tilts to the right:

Remembrance

Execution of Colonel Ho Ngoc CanLast words: "If I won the war, I would not condemn you as you have condemned me.I would not humiliate you as you have humiliated me.I would not ask you questions that you asked me.I fought for the freedom of my people.I have merit and I am not guilty.No one can convict me.History will criticize you as my Communist enemy.You want to kill me, then kill me.Do not blindfold me.Down with the Communists.Long live the Republic of Viet Nam !"

Colonel CraigMandeville:

“They wanted the people to see that he was dead,” said Craig Mandeville, an American adviser to the South Vietnamese army who fought side by side with Can. “He was believed to be some sort of invincible guy. The North Vietnamese thought that, too, and I even thought that when I fought with him.”

“He said, ‘OK, the country’s fallen, but by God we’re still South Vietnamese and we’re free,’ ” Mandeville recalled. “So he went down to Chuong Tien province and rounded up all these soldiers down there to form a Free Vietnam.”

Col. Can didn’t live long after that, but the legacy of his struggle lives on.

=============================
My great grandfather and great uncle knew all the men in the "Civil War Requiem" video as they were part of the 53rd NC which was the sole unit defending Fort Mahone. (Fort Mahone was named "Fort Damnation" by the Yankees) *Handpicked men of the 53rd (My great grandfather was one of these) made the final, night assault at Petersburg in an attempt to break Grant's line. This was against Fort Stedman which was a few miles to the slight northeast. They initially succeeded, but reinforcements drove them back. This video is made from photographs which were taken the day after the 53rd evacuated the lines the night before to begin the retreat to Appomattox. I have many more pictures taken by the same photographer, one of these shows a 14 year old boy and the other is the famous picture of the blond, handsome soldier with his musket.
===========================
*General Gordon promised the men a gold medal and 30 days leave if they accomplished their task and many years after the War my great grandfather wrote General Gordon, who was then governor of Georgia about this incident. They exchanged several letters which I have framed. See first link below.
